STEP 1 - DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL FIREFOX AND VLC MEDIA PLAYER
Mozilla Firefox browser can be download by clicking on this image - 
VLC media player can be downloaded by visiting their website - VLC player website
STEP 2 - ADD DOWNLOADHELPER TO FIREFOX
Start Mozilla Firefox click "tools" then "add ons" then select the "get add ons" option and type "downloadhelper" into the search box and clck on the "add to Firefox" button on the right hand side of the downloadhelper information screen.
Firefox will tell you it need to restart to complete installation.
Once Firefox has restarted you will notice an icon on the left hand side of the address bar that looks like
3 interlocking grey balls.
This is the downloadhelper icon - whenever you visit a website that has media files built into it the downloadhelper icon will change colour and begin moving - this is downloadheler telling you that it can download media files from the webpage you are on.
STEP 3 - FIND AN ONLINE FILM THAT YOU WANT TO WATCH / DOWNLOAD
The easiest way to do this is to type"watch movies online" into Google.
Google will offer to take you to various websites - I recommend watch-movie-links.net
STEP 4 - BEGIN TO DOWNLOAD THE FILM
Once you have found an online film that you want to watch the Downloadhelper icon will change colour and begin rotating - this is downloadhelper telling you that it can download media from the webpage you are on.
Click on the tiny triangle next to the downloadhelper icon and it will show you what files are available to download.
Check that the fle you are about to download is NOT an .flv file.
Any other file type will do (.avi / .mp4 / .wmv etc.)
Use downloadhelper to download the file to anywhere on your computer.
STEP 5 - BEGIN TO WATCH THE MOVIE
Wait until at least 7mb of the video file has downloaded then open the video file using VLC player.
VLC media player will play incomplete media files and will buffer a downloading media file. |
